DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-8660 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The ovl_setattr function in fs/overlayfs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3 attempts to merge distinct setattr operations, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and modify the attributes of arbitrary overlay files via a crafted application.

low complexity
linux CWE-264
6.7
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-8569 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The (1) pptp_bind and (2) pptp_connect functions in drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3 do not verify an address length, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism via a crafted application.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-200
2.3
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-8543 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The networking implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3, as used in Android and other products, does not validate protocol identifiers for certain protocol families, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL function pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly gain privileges by leveraging CLONE_NEWUSER support to execute a crafted SOCK_RAW application.

7.0
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-8374 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
fs/btrfs/inode.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.3 mishandles compressed inline extents, which allows local users to obtain sensitive pre-truncation information from a file via a clone action.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-200
2.1
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-7990 Race Condition vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Race condition in the rds_sendmsg function in net/rds/sendmsg.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not properly bound.
local
linux CWE-362
5.9
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-7885 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The dgnc_mgmt_ioctl function in drivers/staging/dgnc/dgnc_mgmt.c in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3 does not initialize a certain structure member, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted application.
local
low complexity
linux CWE-200
2.1
2015-12-28 CVE-2015-7884 Information Exposure vulnerability in Linux Kernel
The vivid_fb_ioctl function in drivers/media/platform/vivid/vivid-osd.c in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3 does not initialize a certain structure member, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted application.
local
linux CWE-200
1.9
2015-12-28 CVE-2013-7446 Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel
Use-after-free vulnerability in net/unix/af_unix.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.3 allows local users to bypass intended AF_UNIX socket permissions or cause a denial of service (panic) via crafted epoll_ctl calls.
local
high complexity
linux
5.3
2015-11-16 CVE-2015-8215 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Linux Kernel
net/ipv6/addrconf.c in the IPv6 stack in the Linux kernel before 4.0 does not validate attempted changes to the MTU value, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (packet loss) via a value that is (1) smaller than the minimum compliant value or (2) larger than the MTU of an interface, as demonstrated by a Router Advertisement (RA) message that is not validated by a daemon, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-0272.

low complexity
linux CWE-20
5.0
2015-11-16 CVE-2015-7312 Use After Free vulnerability in multiple products
Multiple race conditions in the Advanced Union Filesystem (aufs) aufs3-mmap.patch and aufs4-mmap.patch patches for the Linux kernel 3.x and 4.x allow local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and BUG) or possibly gain privileges via a (1) madvise or (2) msync system call, related to mm/madvise.c and mm/msync.c.
